Nice load, good velocities.

Yea not bad and without any pressure signs at all. Going to run the through the model 29 tomorrow. A what was impressive is the RIA a Reeder custom and the consistency of that load from that gun. LW chambers are tight but the RIA must be really tight or the barrel length and chamber are optimal for the combination. Std Dev of only 4 FPS wow that tight.

Ran a few magizines of this load through the Model 20 Longslide and the accuracy is outstanding 4" group at 75 yards. Shooting from a rest off the bench.
